We have a 2012 Jeep Patriot and I'm wondering if the angle of this seat will work for rear facing?

We have it rear facing in a 4-door wrangler. Its not terribly comfortable sitting in the seat in front but for short rides its not a problem.

YES, we did it with our Patriot Latitude and I have a friend whose baby is RF in a 2010 Patriot. It is a tight fit, but I can get a super tight latch in any position in the back seat, including three across (as long as you use two radians the third seat can be a bit bigger) and either FF or RF. The front seat will not be able to go all the way back, but as long as you are not super tall it will be fine. I am 5'8" and had no problems. LOVE my radians.

Rear Facing? Not sure about the hybrid but I've had it RF in the center seat of a Camry and Corolla. The passenger would be uncomfortable if it was on the sides though, even with the angle adjuster.

This will fit fine rear facing on most planes. It will probably not be at the correct angle, but I would personally be more comfortable with my child rear facing at a more upright angle than forward facing that early.

If it is being used as rear facing, yes. Forward facing, it might, but I am not as certain.

I would say , not the way you want it to. I had to revamp it just to fit the vehicle it was ment to fit. Still sucked and the rear seat is a joke of its own. Hope that helps

It really is a great car seat. It does recline for the rear facing position.

You'll probably want to use this one: Diono Super Mat Deluxe, Black instead since the angle adjuster is for rear facing which means you would not need the full mat back. I'm sure you can use it, but it seems like a better fit for the seat while it's rear facing would be the shorter model. We just purchased one today for a rear facing seat. We have 4 of the full mats for the 4 Dionos we have forward facing. The mat is great and saves the leather seating.

Yes, we have the seat for our granddaughter. We used it rear facing until she was 2 and then turned it forward facing.

I have not used it with a rear facing seat but I don't see any reason why it couldn't be.

As long as your rear diff is a Dana 44 yes . It's the front diff that is the problem because of the steering linkage .My suggestion would be to go to your local Jeep dealer and give them your VIN , they can give you a printout with all of the spec's for your Grand Cherokee .

I'm sorry but I'm not sure about fitment...my best advice would be to see if the Patriot and Wrangler come with the same jack from the factory. You could probably find out online, if not maybe a Jeep dealer's parts dept can tell you. Good luck.

I bought this as a front facing car seat for my 3 year old special needs daughter. I have not seen anywhere that it can be rear facing. It is not a convertible seat.

As long as you are using it for rear facing it should be fine. I started using it around 8-9 months because my daughter wanted to sit up straighter. I continued to use it Until I turned her around at 2 years.

Yes. I have used it in the back seat of two trucks, rear facing without any problems.

It should. It may be a tight fit rear facing as it cannot brace/touch the front

The rebound bar is really for the rear facing. It is a good seat, but we use it as a spare so don't remember everything about it.

My husband works for Enterprise Rent-a-Car and we have installed this in everything from a compact car to a suburban. In a jeep wrangler, I-the one sitting in front of the car seat-had plenty of room with my son rear-facing. You should be able to go to babies r us and try one out even if you buy from amazon :)
